Jeffrey Winder appealed his guilty verdict after punching “Unite the
Right” organizer Jason Kessler in Charlottesville the day after
protester Heather Heyer died. A jury determined Winder should serve no
jail time and pay the lowest fine possible.

Keep punching Nazis.

Turns out punching Nazis isn’t just moral, it’s shockingly affordable.

My laptop is back, and thus work can finally resume! I’m just… A little worried, because pixel work, which used to be a calming and fun activity for me, has suddenly become exhausting and stressful. I suddenly am struggling to create color palettes and it took me a solid 30 minutes to come up with a decent gradient that looked nice for the space between Vraska’s face and her tentacles. I don’t want to give up, but I’m afraid that after a month-long break from pixel work that the fire I had lit inside has died…

how many times has anakin skywalker been electrocuted

does someone have a count

is this boy’s brain okay

thishereanakinguy, your life’s purpose has arrived!

Omg my time to shine!

1. Gungan General
2. Hostage Crisis
3. The Citadel
4. Gungan Attack
5. Prisoners
6. Shadow Warrior (at least twice, implied it was much more)
7. Slaves of the Republic
8. Escape from Kadavo (twice)
9. Crisis on Naboo (twice)
10. Sacrifice (though this was in Yoda’s vision and not real life)

So in conclusion, by the time Revenge of the Sith rolls around, Anakin has been electrocuted a minimum of 12 times. This can cause a host of physical and neurological problems, including lack of emotional control, increased aggression, etc. Strictly speaking, Anakin’s propensity towards having huge amounts of electricity (which should by all rights have killed him ages ago – there’s an entire book where Luke is dealing with the pain associated with Force lightning, whereas Anakin’s just like “whatever, just another Tuesday”) played as big of a role in his turn to the Dark Side as anything else, since it sapped his brain of the ability of cognitive reasoning.

…so are you saying that Anakin might have never joined the dark side if he wasn’t a human lightning rod?

I’m saying Anakin’s cognitive functioning and ability to control his emotions and aggression were deeply impacted by being a human lightning rod, which is the long way of saying yes.

yall out here reblogging only the first half of this but not the important stuff

that definitely would explain a lot
